Nitrosation by stimulated macrophages. Inhibitors, enhancers and substrates (1989)
Kosaka, Hiroaki, Wishnok, John S., Miwa, Misao, Leaf, Cynthia D., Tannenbaum, Steven R.
Macrophages and their immortalized cell lines can be activated to form nitrite and nitrate via oxidation of arginine and this is accompanied by the formation of N-nitroso compounds. The mechanism of...

Miwa, Misao, Stuehr, Dennis J., Marletta, Michael A., Wishnok, John S., Tannenbaum, Steven R.
Rats and mice treated in vivo with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) synthesize and excrete large quantities of nitrate. Murine peritoneal mrophages, elicited in vivo with thioglycolate and...

Matsuzaki, Hiroshi, Katsumata, Shin-ichi, Uehara, Mariko, Suzuki, Kazuharu, Miwa, Misao
High-phosphorus (P) diet induces nephrocalcinosis in rats; however, the mechanism for onset of this disorder is unclear. The calcium (Ca) deposits in kidney are a form of hydroxyapatite, while...
